Available now, Autonomous is a managed WordPress hosting plan that provides auto-scaling out of the box, making it easy to resource plan for startups, growing businesses, and e-commerce sites that have high fluctuations in peak traffic.
The plan is available in the US, UK, Europe and Asia.
Resource planning is an issue for many businesses and failing to plan correctly can lead to downtime and overspending. Autoscaling has been a feature of cloud technology for some time, but unfortunately it's not something we typically see as standard on many cloud hosting plans. Autonomous allows businesses to focus on development and is perfect for growing businesses that may not have the technical means to implement the latest technology.
Real benefits of the cloud
Suhaib Zaheer, Senior Vice President of Managed Hosting at DigitalOcean, said: “Autonomous Cloudways is designed to effortlessly handle traffic spikes, ensuring your website remains fast, reliable and responsive, no matter the demand. It is more than a service; It's peace of mind for businesses that depend on their online presence. “We're proud to deliver the capability our broad customer base has asked for, proving we're listening and helping us set a new standard in web hosting performance and reliability.”
Cloud hosting is becoming an increasingly popular option over shared and dedicated web hosting, but many providers are incorporating the term cloud into their plans without offering any cloud benefits to their customers.
The benefits of cloud infrastructure naturally provide automatic scaling and geographic redundancy, but they are often not included in cloud plans or come at an additional cost.
Genuine cloud hosting providers like ScalaHosting are great for high-end plans and standalone is a welcome addition for smaller businesses that can really benefit from cloud infrastructure.
